Reviews for El Catrin in Houston, TX
Excellent food, very pleasant environment and friendly service.
good food, friendly staff and some of the best nachos I've had in a long time
First time trying this restaurant. We wanted to sit outside, around 7pm, but they didn't have any tables ready and we would have... had to wait for them to fix one up so we decided to stay inside. There was only one other party at the restaurant. The waitresswas pleasant however the chips were beginning to go stale. The food is priced a bit steep but it taste good and the decor isinteresting. I'd give it another shot. Read more
Very clean friendly service, we went on karaoke ???? night so it was a little loud but dam my neighbors can sing. Shrimp... cocktail is pricey but soooo good. It is definitely a meal in itself. Read more
Quick and good food/service. I'm happy with the food and felt welcomed by the staff's service. I stopped by for a late lunch... after 2 pm. Since I was new, I asked the waitress for the popular lunch options and ordered the Enchiladas Potasinas with anAgua Fresca (Hibiscus). Their mason jars are pretty large and just $3.99. If you like Hibiscus, I would recommend you try it! The food was good, but I don't have much to compare it to since this was my first time trying Enchiladas Potasinas. Theenvironment is welcoming, the decor is nice to look at, and the staff was super friendly. Don't be surprised if theOwner/Manager stops by and asks about the service and food. He was full of conversation and a joy to be around. You can tellthat they all strive to help their customers get the best dining experience. Stop by the next time your in the area! Read more
I've been here for take out on 2 occasions. I've tried the large beef quesadilla that my coworker ordered and I've tried the... baked fish with rice and fries. The quesadilla had a really great flavor but was quite greasy. The fish was pretty average. Thefirst time I went, I ordered at the counter and my food was ready in less than 15 minutes even though it was crowded and reallybusy for lunch. The second time, we called in the order and I arrived at the time I was told it would be ready. Not only was itNOT ready but I waited an additional 15 or 20 minutes for them to get it ready even though there were very few people in thedining room. The inside looks nice and has a full bar and a patio area and maybe live music. Parking is ample. The menu ispretty full so I would like to try other things on the menu and see if I can "veganize" some things. I would also like to go ata time other than lunch on a weekday. The jury is still out on this place. At best it's average. Read more
